You don't need this map<int,map<int,int> >, I think this is your problem. Take a look to my code and if you have any question tell me :)

My code

Btw, I used map in this and got TLE, that why i changed it.

    Thank you :(

    if( use[pos][dif+100000] ) return DP[pos][dif+100000]; use[pos][dif+100000] = true;

    Why did you do this i think it will work if its negative but it will change if the number is positive no?

        I think it's necessary here because maybe the difference gets negative.

          diff < 0

          so you used map to store a[diff] -> TLE

          he used aray a[diff + 1e5] -> AC
